Battleship Down

Randy Niessen

BATTLESHIP DOWN showcasing works by: Randy Niessen (Calgary, AB) _________________________ Randy Niessen’s site specific installations are created through a hybrid of painting, print media, and sculpture. These installations play with the tension between art and environment, materials and space, as well as reality and illusion. In the abstract of a sinking ship, Battleship Down is an explosive scene of geometric shapes and colour. Fire, water, and light are represented by paint and string erupting around an abstract dreadnought engulfed in its own environment. __________________________ Exhibition runs August 5 to September 29, 2010 CLOSING RECEPTION: Thursday, September 16, 2010 @ 7:00 PM at the Window Space http://truck.ca/index.php?action=view&exnumber=276
